Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Bago could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a pleasure if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to take on and off.
- Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.
